The ‘Gardiner Gateway Project’ is a partnership between local, state and federal agencies working across jurisdictional boundaries to restore and enhance access to the original and only year-round entrance to the world’s first national park – Yellowstone National Park - and the nation’s first gateway community -Gardiner, Montana - in anticipation of the centennial of the National Park Service in 2016.
Transcript of Gardiner Gateway Project Overview
We !rmly believe in making smart investments in our natural wonders. "e Gardiner Gateway Project focuses on an asset that drives 6 out of 10 visitors to Montana’s doorstep. Recent studies show that every dollar of federal money invested in National Parks returns $10 in local economic activity. It’s simple arithmetic to understand that this investment will provide continued economic vitality for your children and your children’s children.
We plan to celebrate the completion of the project in 2016 on the National Park Service’s 100th anniversary, and hope to welcome President Obama to celebrate under the historic centerpiece of this project —the iconic Roosevelt Arch.
Because of you, the Gardiner Gateway Project will succeed. Be part of the movement: GardinerGatewayProject.org
